Spurs under 18’s versus Brighton & Hove Albion: (match preview)

Spurs under 18’s versus Brighton & Hove Albion: (match preview


After suffering a slightly surprising 4-0 defeat to Fulham on the opening day of the league season, Matt Taylor’s under 18 side will be desperate to bounce back when they host Brighton at Hotspur Way, in game week two. Taylor’s side welcome a Brighton team who finished in fifth place in the Premier League South last season. Some of the Brighton players to look out for tomorrow include centre forward Lorent Tolaj, captain and central midfielder Jack Spong and attacking midfielder Stefan Vukoje. The ‘ Seagulls ‘ are usually a very well structured side at this level and it could prove difficult to get the better of Mark Beard’s side tomorrow morning. Apologies for the short preview, my in-depth match report of the game will be out on Sunday afternoon. 

My predicted lineup: (4-2-3-1) Kurylowicz, Lusala, Muir, Binks, Kyezu, White (c), John, Cooper, Whittaker, Scarlett, Etete.

Subs from: Solberg, Cesay, Michael Craig, Pedder, Asante.

Injured/unavailable: Malachi Walcott, J’Neil Bennett, Dennis Cirkin. 

Doubtful: N/A.

My score prediction: Spurs 4-2. 

Previous meeting: Spurs 4-1.

My one to watch: The ‘ Seagulls ‘ top scorer last season with 12 goals, centre forward Lorent Tolaj.
